What Happened in the Latest Episode of Lock Upp 2?
Ram Kapoor, Shilpa Shinde, Akanksha Choudhary, Pamala Serena, and Varun Yadav all competed for a finale-week seat. Varun ultimately won with help from Aarush Bhola — but the way he won is what sparked the outrage.
| Detail | Information |
|---|---|
| Task Type | Pre-finale strategy task |
| Winner | Varun Yadav (with Aarush Bhola’s support) |
| Alleged Strategy | Eliminating female contestants first |
| Most Vocal Critics | Pamala Serena, Akanksha Choudhary |
| Key Fallout | Akanksha regrets past support for Varun |
Why Fans Are Furious?
Despite Akanksha directly asking not to be targeted, Varun and Aarush reportedly eliminated the women in the game before taking out Ram Kapoor last. Pamala didn’t hold back afterward, accusing Varun of viewing women as inferior and refusing to lose to one.
Akanksha’s reaction was arguably the bigger twist. She admitted she felt foolish for defending Varun in earlier weeks, even recalling a past clash with Apoorva Mukhija over calling him a misogynist — a label she now says she understands. She accused him of hypocrisy, arguing that targeting women to win is exactly the behavior that earns someone that reputation.
What This Means for the Finale
With alliances clearly cracking during the season’s most crucial stretch, expect the tension between Varun’s camp and the rest of the house to define the final week. Whether this backlash affects his standing with viewers remains to be seen.
